1/2 tsp. pumpkin pie spice

In a medium saucepan over medium-high heat, bring pumpkin, syrup, and spice to a low simmer. Slowly whisk in milk and vanilla. Bring mixture to a low simmer then remove from heat.

Transfer milk mixture to a blender or food processor. Pulse several times until mixture is foamy and frothy. Be careful as the mixture is hot.
